Located near the modern city of Luxor, in a desert gorge west of the Nile, it was chosen as a hidden royal cemetery to protect tombs from looting. Despite these efforts, most tombs were plundered in antiquity, with the exception of the spectacularly preserved tomb of Tutankhamun, discovered in 1922.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ubicaci\u00f3n<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">El valle forma parte de la necr\u00f3polis tebana, declarada Patrimonio de la Humanidad por la UNESCO. Los visitantes pueden acceder a \u00e9l:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Uni\u00e9ndose a una excursi\u00f3n organizada en autob\u00fas desde centros tur\u00edsticos como Hurghada o Luxor.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Por libre, comprando la entrada en el lugar (unas 750 libras egipcias para adultos extranjeros en 2026).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">En total se han identificado hasta ahora m\u00e1s de 60 tumbas, desde la de Tutmosis I hasta la de Rams\u00e9s XI. Los arque\u00f3logos creen que a\u00fan podr\u00edan quedar otras ocultas bajo la roca del desierto.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Excursiones<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Una visita al Valle de los Reyes suele estar incluida en los tours a Luxor, que tambi\u00e9n pueden abarcar atracciones cercanas. Durante la excursi\u00f3n:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Los turistas hacen transbordo de los autobuses a peque\u00f1os veh\u00edculos el\u00e9ctricos que los llevan directamente a las entradas de las tumbas.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The desert climate can be extreme, with summer temperatures reaching 50\u00b0C, so hats and water are essential.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The standard ticket covers three tombs, while entry to famous sites such as Tutankhamun\u2019s tomb requires an additional fee.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Los visitantes deben tener en cuenta que algunas excursiones de bajo coste sustituyen la visita al Valle de las Reinas, que ofrece tumbas m\u00e1s sencillas con menos decoraci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Interiores de tumbas<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Las tumbas est\u00e1n excavadas profundamente en la roca y constan de:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Un pasillo inclinado o escalonado.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>C\u00e1maras que conducen a la sala de enterramiento.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Las paredes y los techos est\u00e1n decorados con pinturas y jerogl\u00edficos magn\u00edficamente conservados, a menudo protegidos por cristales. En la mayor\u00eda de las tumbas se permite hacer fotos con el m\u00f3vil (sin flash); para usar una c\u00e1mara hace falta una entrada fotogr\u00e1fica aparte.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most tombs today are empty\u2014the treasures and mummies have been moved to museums. Only Tutankhamun\u2019s tomb still contains the pharaoh\u2019s sarcophagus and mummy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tumba de Tutankam\u00f3n<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Discovered by Howard Carter in 1922, Tutankhamun\u2019s tomb is the Valley\u2019s most famous find. Although small compared to others, it astonished the world with its intact treasures, including the golden death mask, now displayed at the Grand Egyptian Museum near the Giza pyramids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>La visita requiere una entrada aparte (unas 700 libras egipcias en 2026).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>La c\u00e1mara funeraria en s\u00ed es modesta, y muchos visitantes la encuentran menos impresionante de lo esperado.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>To reduce strain on the original, an exact replica of Tutankhamun\u2019s tomb was built nearby in 2014 for tourist visits.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Today, the Valley of the Kings remains not only a key archaeological site but also one of Egypt\u2019s most visited attractions, offering a rare glimpse into the grandeur and rituals of the pharaohs\u2019 afterlife.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex
